Canadian General Standards Board's (CGSB) Review of Standards Consideration for Maintenance or Withdrawal

Canadian General Standards Board's (CGSB) Review of Standards Consideration for Maintenance or Withdrawal

The Canadian General Standards Board (CGSB) is undertaking the review of a number of its Standards that are time-dated and in need of a technical review. Feedback from stakeholders will be used to assess the use, need and support for the standards and will help CGSB to decide whether the standards will be reaffirmed, revised or withdrawn.

As an accredited standards development organization, CGSB must follow the procedures set out by the Standards Council of Canada (SCC) for the development and maintenance of standards. The SCC requires that accredited standards development organizations, such as the CGSB, regularly review a consensus standard to determine whether to reaffirm, revise or withdraw.

Please note, that if the standards are withdrawn, CGSB can begin the process to reinstate and update the standards, if at anytime they are required, provided that adequate support is found. Archived copies of withdrawn standards are available from the CGSB Sales Centre.
